Knots... it brings great memories... My father was a merchant marine before and he used to pepper us with his lessons about knots. I was 9 I think... Needless to say, I pretty much forgot all of it but man those teaching sessions were intense since I was 9.

after testing with a scale. palomar knot and the albright knot are the best. both performed at 100% or higher!

for the albright i connected 20lb to 50lb mono and it tested at 21.8lbs and the palomar knot using 20lb mono tested at 22.3lbs!
i always use Palomar if i can its easy and a great knot.;)

double loop simple knot LOL! jk...

i use palomar(only if im in a hurry to cast on some boils on the surface), but otherwise i use it rarely...i form my own knot, stand out stronger than palomar.
